Comfort Noise Generation For Digital Communication Systems
Kumar Swaminathan - Gaithersburg MD Brian M. McCarthy - Lafayette Hill PA
Assignee:
Hughes Electronics - Los Angeles CA
International Classification:
G10L 900
US Classification:
395 237
Abstract:
A digital discontinuous cellular communication system has a transmitter that transmits two frames of data following detection of voice inactivity. A receiver includes a comfort noise generator that uses the two frames of data to output noise to the speaker during period of voice inactivity. The comfort noise generator includes synthesis codebook with samples scaled by actual background noise and excitation codebook with samples filtered and scaled by the background noise that are combined to produce comfort noise having attributes and loudness level of the received background noise prior to interruption of transmission. The scaled signals are weighted to vary the loudness level and spectral attributes.
